Hi all,
Quick question about maximum RIO for a PLC5. I'm looking to add some a RIO drop that emulates 6 racks to my existing PLC5 system (It is being used as a RIO gateway). This is being done as an intermediate step towards a plc upgrade. In the PLC5 quick reference, it says that a PLC5/40E, which is what I am using can accomedate up to 60 Remote chassis or "15 I/O Racks" in brackets. So does this mean I can have 60 logical devices/racks on the network represented by a maximum of 15 physical devices?
Attached a snippit of the PLC5 qucik guide where I am referencing my info from...
Kind Regards,
